Interior Build Out

POSTED: SUMMER 2023

We need your help to bring a mobile bookstore to the Baltimore metropolitan region. The idea is to fill a high-top cargo van with all of the quality books, educational materials, and fun you and your children can handle. The van will be available for pop-ups, festivals, book fairs, house parties, and more. The original design inspiration is presented below.

We are raising $100,000 to support the purchase and build-out so that the van can hit the road starting in January 2024 (or sooner). We have a basic design that you can see in the gallery below. Now, all we need is funding to make it happen.

Here are a few examples of how mobile retail is changing the lives of readers. Help us bring this experience to a neighborhood near you.
